[FIXED] Gitlab CI. mvn verify. Failed to execute goal

Issue

I tried build locally:

mvn -B verify

All works fine.

.gitlab-ci.yml :

image: maven:latest

verify-job:
  script:
    - mvn -B verify

After checked several modules maven. I get error:

[INFO] Tree 1.0-0 ......................................... FAILURE [  7.587 s]

... SKIPPED

no module uses dependency org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin I checked another answers on SO with the same error, no one is related with CI GitLab integration. I can guess it's related to ktlint, but why local builds are successful?

Solution

I find a solution: just add to pom.xml

    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0-M1</version>
    </plugin>
